iptables from cgi script

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I used to be able to list my rules via a cgi script but since moving to
redhat 9 (iptables 1.2.7a) it fails. The reson given is "can't initialize
iptables table `filter': Permission denied (you must be root) Perhaps
iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded." which is absolutley accurate
(because I get this logging in as a local user and running /sbin/iptables -L
too) - but I need to know how to achieve this.
I tried altering the group on /sbin and /sbin/iptables and adding my local
user to that, but still it fails.

Am I missing something really obvious?  Either way, your assistance/advice
is welcome.

Thanks
